EVALUATION CRITERIA

Decisional Rule Criteria Best Value Trade-Off:

The quoter’s quotation will be evaluated in three areas: Technical, Past Performance, and Price.

Technical areas are more important than Past Performance, which in turn is more important than Price. Quoters should recognize that Price, although of lesser importance than Technical and Past Performance, might contribute substantially to the Source Selection Authority’s (SSA’s) contract award decision. As the evaluation of competing quotations in the Technical and Past Performance areas become more equal in rating, the more important Price will be come in selecting the best value for the Government. Technical and Past Performance areas will be evaluated in accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(3), Evaluation of Quotations or Offers.
